100 Great Film Recommendations

This isn't a list of my favorite movies, or even the GREATEST movies, but just a simple list of 100 somewhat random choices of movies I think you should watch. A lot of them are pretty weird, avant garde, and obscure, while others are pretty mainstream and classic. They are all highly recommended.
